Malcolm Rose is a British author. He wrote the 'Traces' series, which consists of "Framed!", "Lost Bullet","Roll Call", "Double Check", "Final Lap" and "Blood Brother". The first book, "Framed!" has been selected by the United States Board on Books for Young People and the Children's Book Council as an Outstanding International Book for 2006.

The latest Traces book, "Blood Brother", was released in March 2008.

Many of Rose's books, including the Traces and Lawless and Tilley series are crime novels where the hero uses science to help him/her catch the criminal.

Before 1996 Malcolm was a Chemistry lecturer for the open university, possibly due to this most of his books do have a strong chemistry-connection. While working as a lecturer, Malcolm was also writing several of his earlier books (Rift, The OBTUSE Experiment, The Higher Form of Killing, Son of Pete Flude) and now although mainly an author also still does some chemistry lectures and visits schools.

As of September 2007 the Official Malcolm Rose forum is now available at http://malcolmrose.forumotion.com primarily run by three readers with several other key members.
